Have you ever wondered what it means to thrive? To have a life so fulfilling that you wake up every morning bursting with energy?
Many of us go through life on autopilot: We don't question what we’re doing or why we’re doing it. We get used to our jobs and our day-to-day routines, sinking into a comfort that can quickly morph into depression if we don’t question ourselves, our careers, and our lives.
Today’s guest, CJ Finley, the founder of Thrive On Life & the Thrive On Life Podcast was the same way 6 years ago.
He chased money until depression hit him like a ton of bricks. But when he hit the proverbial “rock bottom,” instead of blaming others, he started asking himself simple questions.
These questions allowed CJ to create a life and a business that gives him energy instead of draining it.
And in today’s show, he’s sharing these secrets to building a thriving and fulfilling life with you.
